Newbie owner taking over a dinosaur

Tonya Kadaj
Posted

I recently purchased a mobile home community. There is an on-site office. It even came with an on-site community manager. It did not come with electronic documents. Not one. All she has done for the last 14 years is make copies of the hard copies. There isn't even any electronic copies of the logo or brochure information. I didn't know I was going to be starting this job from scratch so I am hoping to find a property manager or owner that can share even just the basics with me. Anything. Pet policy, yard citation, late notice, park rules, etc.

two more important docs:

Also, I really want to add an addendum to the lease for first right of refusal. I would like to have a lease to own option contract since the owner cannot "sell" to the people.

There are websites out there that train you to manage a mobile home park and they probably provide sample forms. Mobile Home University offers a $300 course that seems to do this (no idea, not an endorsement). It sounds like you're starting from scratch with no experience, so this would be a way to jump-start your business.
